Using the File API

The File API consists of 14 functions that you can use anywhere in your JSFL scripts. Each function is accessed as a static method of the FLfile object.

You don't need to create an instance of the FLfile object to access its methods. You access the functions directly through the FLfile object.

For example, one of the functions in the FLfile object is called createFolder, and as you would expect from a method with such a name, it creates a folder on the local file system. To use this method in your JSFL scripts you would use the following syntax:

FLfile.createFolder("file:///C:/myFolder");
